Needs and Uses: The DoD Office of Financial Readiness Information (FINRED) is sponsoring a website usability study to collect opinions, ideas, and concerns from members of the military community on their level of satisfaction with the FINRED website content, layout, and navigation of financial resources. This study will be used only for research purposes and the results and recommendations will be anonymous when shared with government officials. The feedback and insights will be used to drive future improvements to the FINRED website. The purpose of the FINRED Card Sorting User Testing of the Financial Readiness website (User Testing/Usability Study) is to provide key metrics to the Office of Financial Readiness to support DoD Instruction (DoDI) 1322.34 “Financial Readiness of Service Members”. The User Testing/Card Sorting Usability Study will provide results from the collection of opinions, ideas, and concerns from members of the military community on their level of satisfaction with the taxonomy and navigation of the FINRED website. Results will also provide a new taxonomy of the FINRED website, that will allow the Office of Financial Readiness to adjust the layout and organization of the website to meet the needs and layout of what the users intend to find when on the website.
